Cursed Sails notes.

  • Haven't seen this around yet either, (if someone already posted let me know) just recently noticed we've got a nice info page up like we did when HD was coming out.

    https://www.seaofthieves.com/game/cursed-sails

    Most excited for new scars, tattoos, and the pirate legend ghost ship items.

    What are you guys ready for?

    I was gunna say.. is it just me or does her arm look a little weird haha

    ...and her eyes!!

    I can't wait for next week!

  • Holy the ship liveries!

  • Rofl at that bonecrusher tankard too!

  • Oh man I'm glad you pointed this out or I would have never seen it! Good eye, @Tre-Oni

  • @tre-oni

    Hmmm, interesting news!

    Something nice for Legends here too!
    Go Ghost: Prefer your undead to be even less alive? Pirates with Legendary status can decorate their ships with ghost livery, including a bone-chilling figurehead and sails.

    At the start of thathat sentence when I first read I got so hyped because I thought they were going to tell me I could be the ghost or skelly haha.

    Ship is just as nice though.

    Can't see it too well, but I wonder if the masts are all floaty like on the ferry.

    Wonder as well if they're Athena rank items, or just actually PL exclusives

  • At the end where it lists everything staying/leaving after the event, it says ship battles will be leaving, however it doesn’t specify if random AI ships will still be a threat after the event.

    I would assume they will be, but some clarification wouldn’t hurt.

    And that Tankard looks awesome.

  • those new cosmetics look amazing. I wonder if my old white guy will be able to pull off that afro.

    Rare have previously said that the AI threat will stay in a similar fashion that Meg did, ie they'll disappear for a week or two and the appear randomly.

    Personally I love that, gives it a slightly more organic feeling. We kick some serious skelly boney a*s and they slink off to lick their wounds for a bit.

  • I am totally stoked for that afro! ALL the bonecrusher gear looks fantastic can't wait!~

    I believe previous dev videos have confirmes that they would still be permanent additions.

    Speculation on my part, but we may see them pulled for the following two weeks after the event ends to tweak them similar to the Megalodon?

    Tied to Athena rank would make sense. At least the "ghost cloth" are tied to that and there already is a full ship set for PL.

    The info does say PL though and nothing about Athena, so I wonder

    I wanna be undead haha

  • Some nice details here!

    I love all the pirate legend stuff... I can see my pirates bank balance hitting zero again!

  • Did I read this correctly? or this just a false assumption?

    It sounds like they said there will be flags at outposts where the skeletons are attacking, and we are going to chase around the map attacking the skeletons and protecting the outposts? But will there be random skeletons on the sea's as well? or is this going to be strictly related to the outposts for now?

    Any thoughts? Perhaps I misunderstood

  • @jjblackhat Ahoy matey!

    The campaign page reads...

    Pirate dominion over the waters is being challenged by crews of skeletons, united by their warped desire for vengeance on the living. Each region will be called out, so prepare to fight to protect your favourite Outposts! Form Alliances to share the rewards of co-operation, or perhaps the new three-person Brigantine ship will help to even the odds?

    So each region/biome will have a ship(s) to take down maybe? So maybe not just circling around outposts! It definitely sounds like we will have a lot on our hands!

    it also says this:

    Look for call-out banners left on the Outposts of the three regions during the coming weeks, telling you where and when to join battle with the skeleton ships. Defend the Outposts and uncover the story of this new foe to get the most out of Cursed Sails – talk to the Bilge Rats to learn more. Then load your cannons, eat your bananas and prepare for battle. The Sea of Thieves needs you!

  • @jjblackhat Hmmmm...

    telling you where and when to join battle

    So I would presume they work like skull forts? They spring up in a location and the outposts tell you where they are... so the outposts just point you in the right direction?

    that's what I am getting from what I am reading, but I really hope they are out at Sea too. I don't just want to chase around to different outposts killing skeletons - I would like to encounter them during Athena missions and such too...

    A side note- i'd like they reduce the number of barrel skellies too!

  • I'm a little confused as to why the bone cosmetics won't be time limited with the event but either way I cannot wait for the 31st! :D

  • Seriously, all of you. Go to Golden Sands.... Nuff said. I have footage but i aint gonna post it here till tomorrow so people can still go explore.

    Just me or does that hunter equipment look like garbage? like it looks like something you would start the game with as a new sailor, doesnt seem like it took much time to design.. maybe its just me...

  • Now that's what I'm talking about! Finally a great great dlc. The world of SoT is about to become a lot more funny and rich. Thank you a bunch Rare! I was wondering if I as a solo player won't be able to full enjoy this dlc tho. hahah

  • @pereraaa nothing stopping you once cursed is out, you're in your solo sloop then ally yourself with two galleons....

  • @capt-sharazad Yeah, dope! Just hoping their don't wave at me with cannonballs. But yeah I'll try. =D
